Samba Reggae Surdo dobra with short shell and warm bass!
The short surdo has its origins in Bahia, where people dance choreographies with their surdos and play them above their heads or even toss them into the air. A shorter shell saves weight and is easier to handle. In addition, the shorter shell also means that the sustain is shorter (=drier sound), which is exactly what you'll be looking for if you're into authentic sound.
Customer reviews for "Surdo Axé 18''x40cm aluminium"
"Timbra"
In 2010, IZZO managed to pull off a remarkable milestone by lancing their high-end show brand TIMBRA TOP PERCUSSION.
All TIMBRA Samba instruments have been developed in close cooperation with renowned percussionists. The objective was to create convincing series of instruments with great sound, optically outstanding and adecuate for stage gigs. Especially the timbals, made of either wood or aluminium, set new standards with their 16 tuning hooks, extraordinary design and spectacular sound.
TIMBRA builds all kinds of Samba instruments from wood and aluminium surdos, cuicas, rebolos to tantans and timbals. A special eye-catcher was one of the brand's first lines - the Carlinhos Brown Signature Series with timbals and bacurinhas with elaborate colour prints and designs on vinyls. High-quality workmanship, authentic sounds and flashy designs are still the main trademarks of TIMBRA.
